Answer:
B) Going to the close store is cheaper.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of going to the next town:
(8.3mi/22mi) × $3.79 = $1.43
Cost of going to the close store:
(2.3mi/22mi) × $3.79 = $0.40
2x4=8 2x2=4 4+8=12, so it is A
The third choice is appropriate.
an = 5 - 3(n - 1); all integers n ≥ 1
_____
This equation follows the form for the general term of an arithmetic sequence.
an = a1 + d(n - 1)
where a1 is the first term (corresponding to n=1), and d is the common difference. From the problem statement, a1 = 5 and d = 2 - 5 = -3.
A) $15 ÷ 40% =
15×.4= 6
15+6= 21
B) $38 × .25=9.5
38-9.5=28.50
28.50×.06=1.71
28.50+1.17=30.21
I think this is how you do it. would wait for other answers as well to double check.
